Medical Insurance Billing and Coding: An Essentials Worktext
- Book Review,
by Marilyn T. Fordney
Book Description
This completely new essentials text features all the must-know information inside the comprehensive book, Insurance Handbook for the Medical Office in an accessible, focused format! It covers key aspects of submitting, tracing, appealing, and transmitting claims for today's full range of health plans. Important topics such as diagnostic coding, procedural coding, office and insurance collection strategies, and Medicare are presented and laid out in full color. Like the larger book, this text also features a chapter on documentation in a medical office, as well as Example boxes, full-color artwork, and an entire chapter on how to complete the HCFA-1500 form using color-coded payer icons. These icons help students identify each health insurance payer along with the relevant information that the payer requires in each box of the claim form.
